people cried aloud for Kings. And you have them, and your law
has grown to immense proportions, as have also the clever sins of
your selfishness. WHERE THERE IS NO SIN THERE IS NO NEED OF
LAWS; FOR THE RIGHTEOUS MAN IS A LAW UNTO HIMSELF.

It must not be imagined that because of the lack of a political
system on Mars, such as you deem necessary on your Earth, that
all is chaos and life a sort of happy-go-lucky existence. On the
contrary, the Martian existence is controlled by the acme of
system, which is in accordance with the law of Divine Harmony. A
system from which has been eliminated all the useless wheels
which so clog up your lives and make your progress slow indeed.


CHAPTER X.

MARS IS RULED BY LOVE

"And now abideth Faith, Hope and Love: these three; but the
greatest of these is LOVE." Paul to the Corinthians.

THERE IS BUT ONE LAW ON MARS. THAT LAW IS LOVE.

This law is not written in a code for the guidance of the people.

It is graven in the hearts of the inhabitants, and is reflected
in the countenance of every individual.

This law is the incentive before the entire population and urges
each individual onward to the completion of the task before him.
